Sweet Selah Sue, We Love You!

Saturday our little girl turned 4!
The day started with house cleaning, food assembling, and cake decorating. Below are 2 'helpers' who licked up any utensil I placed down...
And this is what my 3rd 'helper' got into... (looks so innocent, doesn't he?)
And thankfully we have special friends- the one below fixed our air conditioner (twice in one week!), just in time for the party...
Here's some of the little guests:
-coloring their butterfly craft...
-waiting to play a game...
-racing to see who will finish eating their bugs (sweet ones) first...
(Keep eating!)
(Serious competition!)
("Yumm! They're so sweet!")
Julia was the winner of the bug eating contest!
-Playing 'Pin the antennae on the butterfly' (Tia is doing a great job as brother Silas watches)
-Julia's turn!
Sharing hugs with Grandma...
-Helena's turn...
Isaiah couldn't be bothered with a blindfold...
Julia's parents brought along a fun bounce...
Julia can out-bounce them all!
It's the little ones turn...
Isabella, all smiles...
The older ones getting ready for a balloon race...
Selah came in first with a tie to Silas and Julia...
Pinata time!

Birthday girl hit...
Even the littlest ones got excited to hit...

Way to go, Isabella!
Candy, candy, candy...

Candles to blow out on a butterfly cake...

Trying to get a pose of all the kids...
Patiently waiting for her presents...

Thanks for the help, Julia & Tia...
Sooo heavy!
Ever wonder where Julia gets it?
Best friends!
Time for bed...

We love you, Selah Sue, and we praise our Father for the gift of your life! We will continue to pray for God's sanctifying grace in your life and that you would love and serve Him all your days in this world and in the world to come.
